I fully concure, but here we were also discussing MS partition tools and how they distroy data when resizing existing partitions. An important point to remember, so only PM and discdrake can repartition without loss of data, although I don't know anything about SysCom.But I absolutely agree it's best to do all partitioning on a given hard drive with the single partition tool. You can format with any formatting tool.On Tue, 17 Jun 2003 15:30:43 -0600 FemmeFatale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Smart but it makes windows think later (if you try their GUIed partitioner) that something is wrong.
Just a comment/warning here.
I have, without problem, on various systems used PM, SysCom, or diskdrake to partition numerous hds.
The important note to remember is that though they all do the same job each will do so 'slightly' different manner. You may use any tool avaiable to format an existing partition but, unless you wish to repartition the entire drive use Only 1 partitioning program and use this program Every time on this hd. Any other program will see errors on the drive. Worse yet is that if you let it 'fix' these errors you are screwed.
